1 teaspoon of baking powder weighs 4 grams. Baking powder is almost always measured in teaspoons — most recipes call for 1–3 tsp. Always check the expiry date: old baking powder loses potency and will under-leaven your bake. The cup conversions below are included for completeness, but the teaspoon table is the most useful section on this page.
For the most accurate results, weigh your baking powder with a digital kitchen scale — the values below assume a level, unpacked cup.

Common mistakes to avoid with baking powder
- Using old baking powder that has lost its leavening power — test it by dropping a teaspoon into hot water; it should bubble vigorously.
- Confusing baking powder with baking soda — baking powder contains acid and base together, while baking soda needs an acid in the recipe to activate.
- Measuring baking powder in a damp spoon, which causes it to clump and affects accurate measurement.
